WITH HIS TAIL BETWEEN HIS LEGS

Senator Rick "Yip Yip" Santorum has been one of the leading voices for the "nuclear option" since the GOP began talking about. Apparently all of that has changed according to a news report that says internal GOP polls indicate Americans do not favor the "nuclear option."

According to The Hill, Santorum, who will be facing a tough election in 2006, has conceded that the public does not want to see the elimination of the minority filibuster, but in true GOP fashion Santorum has blamed the publics reaction on the Democrats for misconstruing the facts.

Anyone who thinks that Santorum is not still in favor if the "nuclear option" is naive, as Santorum is simply changing gears in public because he knows if he doesn't it may cost him his spot in the Senate. Hopefully the people of Pennsylvania look past his smoke screen and give this guy the pink slip.
